QANNIK’s story is one of the unforgettable ones to us!
She is one of a kind (as also some others 😉 ).

Thanks for honouring her by this pictured report
at the occasion of her 12th birthday.

Dear Molly,
Dear Mervi,

Quanik’s rescue 12 years ago was all over the press and we were able to follow its development in many reports afterwards. It’s great that she’s doing so well and that she’s found a lovely home in Louisville, where the keepers always give her a great birthday party.
Happy Birthday dear Quanik!

Dear Molly and Mervi
I remember the excitement as UPS shipped Qannik and she had her own blog. You have shown us a beautiful grown bear enjoying that most American of treats: Peanut Butter.

Dear Molly and dear Mervi!
I am very delighted to hear from Quannik, this sweet orphaned bear, after almost 12 years. She has grown into a beautiful bear lady and is obviously very loved by her keepers. I am always touched when keepers celebrate their fosters’ birthdays and spoil them on those days.
Quannik’s fondness for peanut butter is very sympathetic.
Thank you for this heartwarming update!

Hugs
Anke

Dear Molly!

What a nice birthday party the keepers had arranged for Qannik – and she deserves it.

I’m sure all the readers of this magazine remember this lovely bear because we followed her time in Alaska very closely. I’m so glad you could visit her and even make this wonderful report for us.

Oh bear, how time flies! Our Qannik is already celebrated her 12th birthday. We all grow older although sometimes I wish the time would stop …. 🙂

I love all the photos but maybe the last one with the beautiful smile is a favourite.

Thank you ever so much for this exclusive article!

Hugs from Mervi
